Klappentext zu „The British Football Film “
This book constitutes the first full volume dedicated to an academic analysis of British football as depicted on film. From early single-camera silents to its current multi-screen mediations, the repeated treatment of football in British cinema points to the game's importance not only in the everyday rhythms of national life but also, and especially, its immutable place in the British imaginary landscape. Through close textual analysis together with production and reception histories, this book explores the ways in which professional footballers, amateur players and supporters (the devoted and the demonized) have been represented on the British screen. As well as addressing the joys and sorrows the game necessarily engenders, British football is shown to function as an accessible structure to explore wider issues such as class, race, gender and even the whole notion of 'Britishness'.

Pressezitat
"Stephen Glynn's survey will be welcomed by film historians and historians of sport ... The British Football Film is a more than helpful compendium, and Glynn proves a sure-footed and undogmatic guide." (Dilwyn Porter, Journal of British Cinema and Television, Vol. 16 (2), April, 2019)Kommentar zu "The British Football Film"
